[c-nsp] Rancid and commercial config management tools

[Paul Stewart]

Yes, we use Orion Network Configuration Management (old Cirrus) and love it!
The last release finally has a fairly slick web interface...

I would also take a look at Solarwinds Network Configuration Manager
(formerly Cirrus).  Backup configs, make mass changes, check configs against
a specific defined policy, inventory equipment, etc.  It may be worth
mentioning that Solarwinds recently purchased Kiwi, and their plan is to
integrate some of the Kiwi-specific features into NCM.
